Applicants to the M.A. Art History program must submit an application to the Graduate School and satisfy both the basic graduate school requirements for admission into a master's program and the department-specific requirements. Please review the Graduate School’s minimum admissions requirements, and prepare your supporting documents before beginning your application. You will need to upload and submit all of the documents at the same time. For detailed information about the MA in Art History degree please review the University Catalog and the Art History Graduate Handbook.
We offer full funding to our MA students, for the two-year program.
It is important to indicate within your application an art history faculty member with whom you would primarily like to work during your time at CU Boulder, based on your research interests. This faculty member will help mentor you and guide you through the comprehensive exams and written thesis.
